THE MILKMANS DREAM - MORAL STORY

      Once there was a milkman in a village. He used to sell milk to far places by carrying along can on his head. He called at each house and sold the milk.




          It was a very tiresome business. Profit was not very high, but Ramu was able to lead a decent life with his family. But as he walked, he used to get lost in his thoughts and started daydreaming. One day, Ramu got extra money from the extra milk that he sold. From that money, he wants to buy some pets from the market. There he decided to buy a chick. He brought the chick home and was very happy to rear it.




             The next day, as Ramu carried the load of milk, he thought to himself, "I have a chick now. Soon it will grow big and lay many eggs. These eggs will hatch into chicks. Those chicks will grow and they would also lay many eggs. Those many eggs would hatch and lay still many eggs. I will have still many chicks hatching and soon I shall become an owner of a very big poultry farm. Then, need not carry this long can of milk and sell milk at doorsteps of people." As he was in his dreams, he didn't notice a protruding stone. He tripped on it and lost his balance. The long can fell down and all the milk spilt on the ground. Only then did he realize foolishness. 



Moral: DREAM CASTLES WILL BE OF NO USE.

THE WOLF AND THE RAT - MORAL STORY

      In a borough under a banyan tree lived a colony of rats. They were living happily there. They got plenty of food around them. The banyan tree was so big and strong that the rats we nicely sheltered.                Once, a cunning wolf happened to come that way. He saw the fleshy rats running here and there across the banyan tree. He thought to himself, "I would love to eat these rats. They are such easy prey." The wolf started limping as if his leg was hurt. Unknowing of the wolf's trick, the leader rat came to the rescue of the wolf. He asked the wolf, "Hello friend, what is your problem? Why are you limping?" The wolf replied in a weak voice, "I have hurt my leg so bad. I cannot hunt for food. If you can help me till I cure, I shall be very thankful to you." "Stay close, I shall send food for you every day through my friends," consoled the leader rat.             From then onwards, the leader ra...

THE MONKEY AND THE WEDGE MORAL STORIES

              Pintu was a mischievous monkey. He was always very playful. He was also shooting troubles. Once, the pack of monkeys in which Pintu was a member wandered into a nearby village.  A group of lumberjacks were cutting big pieces of wood from the logs. Pintu watched with wonder at the ease with which the lumberjacks split large logs. He was observing their work. When a lumberjack had inserted a wedge to split a log, the bell rang to indicate their lunchtime. The lumberjacks set aside their work and went away for their lunch.         Pintu ran to the log with the wedge stuck deep inside. His curiosity increased. He left his hand inside the split end and tried to pull the log apart. Nothing happened. So Pintu decided to pull out the wedge and see what happened.

THE FRUIT THAT FELL THE AMAZING STORY

          One day, a rabbit was fast asleep under a shady berry tree. Suddenly, the rabbit woke up with a jerk. He thought he heard a loud noise as though the earth is tearing apart. He ran away from the place as fast as his legs could take him. He cautioned all animals he came across. "Hey brothers and sisters, run away from this place.  The earth is tearing apart." Now, there was panic all across the forest. All animals started to run. However, they all came to a halt with the loud roar of the lion - king of the forest. "Stop all of you fools. Where are you running away? What are you running away from?" he asked. The animals looked at one another without an answer. The rabbit said, "My lord, I was resting under a tree. I heard a loud noise. I think the earth is tearing apart." With a smile, the lion said, "Ok rabbit, show me the place." All animals went along to the tree. There, they saw many fruits fallen down. Only now did they really underst...
